Crema's Take
“Anthony's is a pastry-first destination where the handmade cannoli and fresh gelato (especially the chocolate) rival the coffee itself, making it as much a dessert shop as a café. The cozy, old-school Italian atmosphere and slow-sit vibe invite lingering, though service can be inconsistent—go when you have time to enjoy rather than rush. If you're serious about sweets in Philadelphia, this place is worth the walk, even if the espresso takes a backseat to the treats.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.
